I was in fact, going to use the threadframe module if it was available on the system, having this method in the Python core is an even better solution. cheering-for-tim-ly yr's, Matt -- http://mattssanctuary.blogspot.com ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

[Python-Dev] Improving unit tests for the standard library
Hi, after speaking with Neal off-list about writing tests for the pkgutil module, we agreed it would be a good idea to start a page on http://wiki.python.org/moin/ stating any tests for the standard library that either, a) need to be written b) can be improved I've started the page http://wiki.python.org/moin/ImprovingLibTests that lists all the test files I could think of that need to be written. Ive also included a table for improvements to existing tests, along with a column that allows you to specify exactly what needs improving. I hope this will be of use to people, and I hope people will find time to modify the page approriately. When I get some spare time from my SoC project, I'll be working my way through the list.

But as Ronald said, not all platforms support the '-a' flag. Not sure if this will fix the OpenBSD buildbot, I don't have access to an OpenBSD machine.

Seeing as there's no _decent_ way to recover from this error, perhaps it could just slip silently passed? -- Matt http://mattssanctuary.blogspot.com ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
